Alan Bates took Thelonious Monk into the studio for his first trio recording in fifteen years with his old sidekick Art Blakey. It has been said often enough that Blakey is the ideal drummer for Monk, and one has only to hear them together again after all this time to realize the truth of the statement. If Blakey at times seems to push the pianist almost too hard, that is in fact the nature of their musical relationship. And, throughout the session, Blakey appeared to be vying with the producer in alternately cajoling and coercing Monk into fulfilling various requests from the small invited audience.

Für dessen erste Trio-Aufnahme innerhalb von 15 Jahren schickte der Produzent Alan Bates Thelonious Monk mit seinem alten Kumpel Art Blakey ins Studio. Es wurde mehr als einmal gesagt, dass Blakey der ideale Drummer für Monk sei, und man muss die Beiden nur wieder gemeinsam hören, um den Wahrheitsgehalt dieser Aussage einschätzen zu können. Wenn es so scheint, als ob Blakey den Pianisten zeitweise zu sehr unter Druck setzt, so ist dies in der Tat der Charakter ihrer musikalischen Beziehung. Und, während der ganzen Session scheint Blakey mit dem Produzenten zu wetteifern, Monk abwechselnd zu schmeicheln oder zu nötigen, die verschiedenen Wünsche des kleinen, eingeladenen Publikums zu erfüllen.
